Before we began filming we first wanted to research potential locations on which we could base our trailer around.
SCREENSHOT
We took screen shots to analyse the different locations used in the film. From this image taken from KiDULTHOOD we can see a block of flats and a corner shop in the background. The quality of the flats seems low, as there’s a lot within a small area which suggest council flats. Therefore we took images of local council flats and edited them making them look dull and run down. We could therefore film in this area when representing the characters way of life.OUR IMAGE
SCREENSHOT
We first wanted to look at a train station as we felt the use of the tube in KiDULTHOOD was very iconic. Although we felt we would like to feature a train station in the film we would have to film on a cloudy day to get the effect of misery. This is a dull day for the characters in KiDULTHOOD as they are mourning the death of a school mate. Seeing as we want to include this theme in our trailer it’s important to make the lighting dull in our trailer also.

This is a shot of our local train station. We wanted some shots in a train station due to it representing youth. Teenagers often get trains into town due to it being quicker than buses. The may also 'jump' trains if its a short journey, meaning they don't have to pay for a bus. Train stations are also used as meeting points for youths meeting friends.
SCREENSHOT
From Harry Brown we took a screenshot of a graveyard. This represents the sadness of the loss of a life. Which is a theme throughout Harry Brown and KiDULTHOOD and one we wish to pursue in our trailer. Therefore we also took images of a graveyard as a potential location.
OUR IMAGE
A grave yard shot was extremely important as our entire film is based on someones death. This is a near by grave yard which we want to use in our establishing shot. Therefore straight away audiences will know the film follows the theme of death but it doesn't give away too much. E.g. who has died and how.
